Ex-PM argues for bailout of oil and gas firm while opposition chief calls for forensic audit
Malaysia's opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim and former premier Najib Razak duked it out in a public debate yesterday in a bid to shape voters' political views ahead of a general election that has to be called by September next year.
The debate centred on whether beleaguered oil and gas company Sapura Energy should be bailed out. The government-linked company recorded a loss of RM8.9 billion (S$2.8 billion) last year despite receiving large investments from state-owned investor Perbadanan Nasional Berhad (PNB), which holds a 40 per cent stake.
Najib stressed the importance of political stability while Datuk Seri Anwar pushed the integrity of governance.
